I'm not even going to attempt to follow that rambling, but yes, I am well aware of the other screenshot posted as the official one from the CPU-z creator. That has nothing to do with this screenshot, or this thread. I haven't mentioned that sceenshot in a single one of my posts here.

The simple fact is, BD is NOT supported by this version of CPU-z. It's not that hard to understand. If you notice, the other screenshot that is supposedly official does not show the same information as this screenshot but rather a generic "AMD processor". This is much more believable than an exact model number. And the fact that this version of CPU-z has been out since February makes this even more dubious.

good talking iceman goose is gonna poop an egg on your head and tell you not to mess with maverick while singing great balls of fire

AMD uses individual integer cores still. If you mean integer commands per clock cycle, this has actually been increased to 4 from 3 on Phenom II...

I Think we are both right. IIRC Each "module" is able to do 4 commands vs each "core" of PII doing 3.Or something like that...

Think of the move from PII to BD like the move from Cypress to Cayman; they reduced the number of SPUs per "core" from 5 to 4 because the extra spu was not being used most of the time. This lead to a reduction in performance in the few applications where that 5th SPU was used, but increased performance on average.
